Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

A rise in domestic real income, Y, leads to a rise in disposable income, Yd. This raises the spending on imports, IM, thus lowering the current account, CA, and reducing aggregate demand, AD. However, the rise in Yd also causes a rise in consumption, C, and raises aggregate demand, AD, by more than the corresponding decrease.
